What each ingredient does
- Sausages
- Main protein; turning during frying promotes even browning on the outside.
- Frying fat
- Conducts heat into the sausage surface and helps it brown evenly without sticking.
The step that matters
Frying gently and turning. High heat can split the skins and scorch the outside before the inside is cooked. Gentle heat with regular turning lets the surface brown evenly while the center heats through.
